Cercle Brugge KSV vs Anderlecht Prediction & Tips
The ‘green and black’ started the championship with a drab goalless draw against Dender, a result that did not boost the fans’ optimism after a weak pre-season and a difficult previous season. New coach Onur Cinel is only just beginning to build the team’s game and, although Cercle were solid at home at the end of last season, the current start leaves many doubts. The attacking problems remain acute: neither Minda nor Ngura have been up to the task, and Bayo will probably get his chance from the start.
The ‘violet and white’ started the league with a convincing 5:2 victory over Westerlo, confirming the team’s great attacking potential. However, the team’s elimination in the Europa League qualifiers against Häcken after a dramatic outcome and a penalty shoot-out could affect the mood in the dressing room. Even so, Anderlecht remain one of the favourites in the Pro League and will continue to fight for the top spot.
